RE: [LIS-Forum] scanning books and copyright laws

Thanks, Sathya. LOCKSS(Lot of Copies Keeps Stuff Safe)is an interesting project. But it apprars to me that, the scope of the project is limited to crawling, preserving and providing access to digital content. I did not see anything about converting "print" to "digital". Please let me know if my understanding is not correct. But, it sounds like a promising initiative for archiving subscribed digital content provided the publishers allow us to do the following: - To provide permission to collect, preserve and provide access to their content - Give permission to LOCKSS crawler to collect the content through a publisher manifest Thanks for letting us know about an interesting digital project, LOCKSS (http://lockss.stanford.edu) Regards, Anand ______________________________________________________________________________________ Ananda T Byrappa e-mail: ananda.byrappa(a)ge.com Whitney Knowledge Centre, GE Global Research Work: +91-80-25032618 DCom:8*9012618 John F.

Date: Mon, 30 Aug 2004 16:12:26 +0530 From: chauhan <chauhan(a)inflibnet.ac.in> Dear Anuradha Ji, In true sense your two questions are very much relevant to the present time. Question 1: ("If i want to scan few books and make availabe to our patrons that is for academic and research purpose only --- what about the copywright act.") Answer: This is the first and last question of any professional who want to digitize his/her library or some documents. If you want to scan few books you have to ask the publisher or as well as author of that particular book in due respect of copyright act. Question 2: ("Once i digitize the book and if it is made availabe - How to controlthat inf is not copied or printed out or made any changes the person who ever is accessing the document.") Answer: Violation of copyright is not a new thing, we are dealing with this since the inception of these copyright laws, and in digital environment violation of these IPR laws is very easy. We can not change this because this is depending on the attitude of the 'violator'. Anyhow, you can take the example of "Online Journals", we are accessing these e-journals through login- password or through IP addresses. Most of the publishers are using some special software to make control over the usage of their journals. Through the help of that software they can provide you the complete statistics regarding browsing, downloading etc. (means what and where a particular user is accessing right now). Right now, especially in India, we are in the entrance of the digital environment. Everyone has thousands of queries regarding this digital environment. Exploration and interaction are two key features to get answers.

We bring to you the first issue of our newsletter on Information Services, which aims to provide you with the latest in the field of Media & Information in Germany. In the first section of this newsletter, we invite you to browse through DigiBib - an online library.

Rowling', and get to know about her fascinating creations in our Author in Focus section. Our separate Corner for Bibliophiles puts you into the current German literary picture and also gives you a foretaste of some of the finest literary pieces being published there today. We would also like to draw your attention to the fact that we have recently started offering our readers the services of the internationally recognized databank Lexis Nexis. This databank is well known as a rich source of articles, which are gathered from newspapers, magazines and journals from all over the world.

Your queries will then be processed by our team of professionals and the results will be made available to you. We hope that this newsletter will prove to be interesting and insightful for you.

You are welcome to contact us in case you need help in this regard. - In the News The Dresden medien@age - a Library for the 21st Century For a long time the library of the twentieth century may have been just "a collection of books", but other media forms are becoming increasingly important this century. The medien@age library in Dresden has courageously embraced this change - and has scored points with its target audience along the way. http://www.goethe.de/kug/mui/bib/thm/en139876.htm Information Services in Germany Unlike in the Anglo-American countries, information services in libraries in Germany at the beginning of the 20th century initially referred mainly to literary information and less to factual information.For two decades now ever more people in Germany have been asking questions about facts to the information sectors of libraries. Today, highly specialised information teams in the field of general information who have many databases for literature and factual information at their disposal can increasingly be found in the academic and large public libraries. http://www.goethe.de/kug/mui/ask/ein/en21811.htm vascoda - the Internet Portal for Scientific Information Being able to access the information lying dormant on the shelves of German libraries with a click of the mouse and download it onto your computer with another click - this is a vision that has just moved one step closer to becoming reality. Since August 2003 the interdisciplinary Internet portal vascoda has been providing access to 37 German libraries, research institutes and information providers. http://www.goethe.de/kug/mui/bib/thm/en69733.htm - Literary Projects Litrix.de - German Literature Online Since January 2004, excerpts from outstanding new publications, specimen translations and the latest information on the German book market are available from the online magazine Litrix.de. The magazine is aimed at an international audience and is a major part of a project promoting contemporary German literature abroad. Project partners are the Federal Cultural Foundation, the Goethe-Institut and the Frankfurt Book Fair. www.litrix.de - Author in Focus Portrait of Cornelia Funke Cornelia Funke is currently the most successful German author of books for young people. She was born in 1958 and has sold a million copies of her books for young people and children. She has been compared internationally with JK Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter series. In September 2003 her book "Tintenherz" was released. http://www.goethe.de/in/d/film/e/kubus-e-59-1-f.html - Bibliophile's Corner Lexikon der deutschsprachigen Gegenwartsliteratur - Revised Germany, the "land of poets and thinkers", has brought forth a great number of writers since time immemorial.

A newly revised encyclopaedia has arrived to help out. http://www.goethe.de/kug/kue/lit/thm/en96421.htmEncyclopaedia only in German language. Where the Good Guys Still Win German detective stories about FBI agent Jerry Cotton have been an international hit for 50 years. "His leap was an act of desperation, the insane reaction of a cornered killer who has nothing left to lose. He dove smack into the line of fire of my revolver. I had released the safety: all I had to do was pull the trigger. But I chose not to: I have a deep-seated aversion to shooting an unarmed man." http://www.goethe.de/kug/mui/buv/thm/en91801.htm "The Wild East" - Young East German authors look back By contrast with the young West Germans who accommodated themselves with Helmut Kohl perfectly well for eight years after the Berlin Wall came down and watched, relaxed and uninterested, as the so-called "Berlin Republic" decayed into "Berlin provinciality", the East Germans of the same age, who have been largely speechless until now, have suddenly appeared from nowhere and are now publishing one book after another. http://www.goethe.de/kug/kue/lit/thm/en72032.htm To unsubscribe from the mailing list, please click here: mailto:online.editor.mmb@delhi.goethe.org?body=unsubscribe
